Confusion over Kegling

[Travis_Bickle]

Is Kegling simply holding it in when you need a piss or is there more to it than that. Can you kelg without needing to urinate and are there any other exercises similar to this. Also I am a beginner and I would like to know how often I should Kelg. If someone can give me a routine then that would be very helpful. Final question in what way does smoking affect PE, I usually smoke about 10 a day but in all othe aspects of my life I lead a healthy lifestyle as I have a well balanced diet and I exercise dailly.

Welcome Travis

Take a look at the guide 'Beginner Guide' and it should answer most of your questions. Yes you can Kelg without needing to urinate, its just might be harder to know if your squeezing your PC muscle, so urinating is a good starting point for you to feel and recognized which muscle is working.

On the Topic of smoking, I don't know what exactly it does/how affect PE. I'm sure some of the other members will give some in site towards it effect on PE.

Edit: i don't smoke, but having been told its hard to quit and the hazards to your health one must think, It's probably doing you a disservice to your health and PE. To me its like taking one step forward and two step back.

For the Kegel, this page will help you out on how often to do it: http://www.pegym.com/free-penis-enla...le-by-kegeling

About smoking: It might affect your results, but there haven't been any studies done to confirm this.

Thanks a lot for the feedback.

Hey Travis.

First off it's called a kegel and it's mainly the BC (Bulbospongiosus, see the link below) muscle we want to exercise (as a male) not the PC muscle. And sure, you can kegel without needing to urinate.

No problem, Travis.

And Dicko. . . Depending on who you ask, the Kegel works out a different set of muscles. To my understanding - and I've spent a lot of time researching this - the Kegel actually works out a whole set of muscles (the pelvic floor muscles, which also includes the IC muscle).

I don't deny that, I was simply saying that it's mainly the BC muscle we want to exercise because that's the muscle of interest for us PE'ers when doing kegels.

Dicko: If my memory serves me well, I believe you like reading and researching PE, the penis anatomy, and other PE theory information.

In which case, you may want to check out a book by Grace Dory: Pelvic Floor Exercises For Men. You can find an Amazon link to it on our reference page: http://www.pegym.com/references

It has a lot of interesting information - both scientific and practical - about Kegels and the pelvic floor muscles.

For suome odd reason, Kegeling gives me a headache. I dunno why though. So as of late I am doing them much less than usual.

zmx: That's odd. Are you sure it's the Kegels?
